I love these kind of posts. Here are some interesting ideas for side-gig:

Books. There are quite a few books there, books for babies, books about iOS dev etc.
Mining Cryptocurrency. This comment got a lot of attention.
Apps. Too many but was glad to see Mac apps generating decent income.
Music. Decent income from YouTube content ID payments according to this comment.
DIY biologist. Seems fun.
A lot of SaaS or content sites.
Flipping items from thrift stores on eBay.

Real Estate vs Startup

For years, I was working towards my own startup. I always had various side-projects and learned a lot from these side-projects. But at the same time, all these projects were failures.

I never paid much attention to real estate investing. I had some friends who bought rental properties or got into flipping houses. It seemed so much more work and riskier. I can create a new startup for just a few dollars and a few weeks of my time, so why pay attention to real estate.
